The Washington Times is a conservative newspaper in Washington, D.C. which strives to counterbalance the perceived liberal slant of the Washington Post. The paper was founded in 1982 by the Reverend Sun Myung Moon, head of the Unification Church (known as the "Moonies.")

Max Blumenthal wrote, "The Times has served as a major key on the conservative movement's Mighty Wurlitzer." [1]

Newt Gingrich said,

"The arrival of The Washington Times was for conservatives both a breath of fresh air and a daring challenge to the media establishment. From day one, conservatives on Capitol Hill and throughout the city looked to The Washington Times for lively, aggressive reporting and bold conservative editorial commentary." [2]
